Backery the Mill

Post by erik winkler »

There was some talk about the French style reverse glass painted stuf with canvas behind glass.
Well here a photo's of the technique I used in a glass work I made.

Very nice, Erik!
You may have addressed it in the other post you're referring to but how did you apply the canvas to the glass? Is it a painting on canvas that you did yourself or from someone else? Or maybe a digital print on canvas?
I pinned the photo to one of my boards on Pinterest. http://pinterest.com/danseese/window-gilding/

Dan here some photo's of the proces.
In my workshops I teach how I attach decals, paper prints and canvas to the glass.
